Pollination
is the main way many
plants reproduce. Male plant spores (pollen) are combined with female
cells (ovules) to
eventually produce a seed.

Pollen
is like dust or powder.
Pollen is often yellow, but it can be white, black, orange, green or
any other color. See
the orange pollen being gathered by a little bee in this lily flower.
Some clumps of
pollen have been knocked down on to the petal below.

This closeup clearly shows the
pollen on the anthers of the lily. The little bee
is busy gathering the pollen,
which is quite sticky.
